Kuro and Toro to appear in Street Fighter x Tekken

Sony’s furry little mascots, Kuro and Toro have as of yesterday been announced to appear as playable characters in Street Fighter x Tekken.

The cats from the Japan-exclusive Dokodemo Issyo game series will be appearing alongside a current roster of 27 characters as exclusives to the Playstation 3 and Vita consoles.

Since their announcements, Capcom has released the following character descriptions for the feline fighters on their website:

TORO The cat who wants to be human

Lonely but pampered. A cat that is very pure-hearted and simple-minded. Toro awakened the power of the Hadou while attempting to remember as many words as possible in a quest to become human. Toro loves tuna, wrapped fermented beans, shrimp, and is an accomplished sewist.

KURO Two Dimensional Justice

A cat that has been around the block a couple of times. Kuro possesses knowledge on a wide variety of miscellaneous topics, and loves games, the occasional adult beverage and the company of beautiful women. While staying up late at night playing games, Kuro unexpectedly awakened the Devil Gene within him naturally. Kuro dreams of a future where he can live freely and do whatever he wants at any time.
